My chromebook worked fine with printing until I got instant ink. Now it will only print every once in awhile. Sometimes it'll print the next day and sometimes not at all. I've uninstalled and installed the printer several times.

@phoenix825, Welcome to HP Support Community!
I see that you have issues with printing, let us try to isolate and resolve the issue-
Update the printer firmware
Download available firmware updates from the HP website
With the printer on and connected to the computer, go to HP Customer Support - Software and Driver Downloads, and then identify your printer. Look for and install any available firmware updates. Refer to the document HP Printers - Updating or Upgrading Printer Firmware
Assign manual IP to the printer
The steps on how to set a manual IP address can be found here.
For the DNS servers please use 8.8.8.8 for the Manual Preferred DNS Server and 8.8.4.4 for the Alternate DNS server. These are Google’s public DNS servers.
Try printing.
Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
